 doing now) and when a package is retired, everyone looses all ACLs on it

 > I was not able to make it to the meeting, but I think removing the ACLs
 when a package is unretired would be better. This allows to easier figure
 out who maintained a retired package previously so one can easier ask the
 previous maintainers about any issues if it is planned to unretire the
 package again.

 The ACLs are still present, when I said drop I meant marked as 'Obsolete'
 so you would still see the previous packager of the application, they
 would just have no valid ACLs on it.
